The One That Almost Got Away & Fall Inspiration



I am not sure why this quilt had never made it on the blog.  This quilt hangs on the landing that leads into my sewing room during the fall months. All of the fabrics are Kaffee. There are so many quilting hiccups on this quilt however it still makes me happy! 


Here are a few Fall Inspirational posted by others.... 




This one had me at Vodka!

Did You Know....?

If you were to cut up your stash, how much fabric would you need to make your own bundle?


Jelly Rolls- 2 1/2" strips, cut the WOF. Normally there are 40 strips equaling the need for approx. 2 3/4 + yards.

Charm Packs- 5" squares usually having 40 squares. Equaling the need for approx. 1 1/8 + yards. 

Layer Cake- 10" x 10" squares usually having 40 squares. Equaling the need for approx. 2 3/4 + yards.

Fat Rolls- 5" wide strips by the WOF. Usually having 40 strips equaling the need for approx. 5 1/2 + yards. 

Turnovers- 6" triangles usually having 40 triangles. Equaling the need for 1 yard.

Sweet Rolls- 1 1/2" strips by the WOF. Usually having 40 strips. Equaling the need for 1 3/4 yards. 


WOF-Width of fabric--selvage to selvage.
+-Meaning you might need slightly more.
All commercially bundles are sold from a coordinating fabric line.

You might be wondering why the need for these numbers? 
I am working on several projects that require either background or coordinating fabric in the same yardage as the bundle packs and I thought if I needed these numbers--you might too!
